But even if you should suffer for righteousness, you are blessed.\u00a0<em>Do not fear them<\/em>\u00a0<em>or be intimidated,<\/em>\u00a0but in your hearts regard Christ the Lord as holy, ready at any time to give a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you. Yet do this with gentleness and reverence, keeping a clear conscience, so that when you are accused, those who disparage your good conduct in Christ will be put to shame. For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be God\u2019s will, than for doing evil.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Homework<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>So, there\u2019s your homework.\u00a0 If you have never taken the time to write down how you came to Christ \u2013 how you were before, how you came to believe, and what you have experienced since \u2013 then that is your assignment.\u00a0 Someone out there needs to hear your story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Acts Chapter 22:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBrothers and fathers, listen now to my defense before you.\u201d When they heard that he was addressing them in Aramaic, they became even quieter. He continued, \u201cI am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia but brought up in this city, educated at the feet of Gamaliel according to the strictness of our ancestral law. I was zealous for God, just as all of you are today. I persecuted this Way to the death, arresting and putting both men and women in jail, as both the high priest and the whole council of elders can testify about me. After I received letters from them to the brothers, I traveled to Damascus to arrest those who were there and bring them to Jerusalem to be punished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Paul\u2019s Testimony<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs I was traveling and approaching Damascus, about noon an intense light from heaven suddenly flashed around me. I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, \u2018Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI answered, \u2018Who are you, Lord?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe said to me, \u2018I am Jesus of Nazareth, the one you are persecuting.\u2019 Now those who were with me saw the light, but they did not hear the voice of the one who was speaking to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI said, \u2018What should I do, Lord?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Lord told me, \u2018Get up and go into Damascus, and there you will be told everything that you have been assigned to do.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Led Into Damascus<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSince I couldn\u2019t see because of the brightness of the light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me, and went into Damascus. Someone named Ananias, a devout man according to the law, who had a good reputation with all the Jews living there, came and stood by me and said, \u2018Brother Saul, regain your sight.\u2019 And in that very hour I looked up and saw him. And he said, \u2018The God of our ancestors has appointed you to know his will, to see the Righteous One, and to hear the words from his mouth, since you will be a witness for him to all people of what you have seen and heard. And now, why are you delaying? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAfter I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, I fell into a trance and saw him telling me, \u2018Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about me.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut I said, \u2018Lord, they know that in synagogue after synagogue I had those who believed in you imprisoned and beaten. And when the blood of your witness Stephen was being shed, I stood there giving approval and guarding the clothes of those who killed him.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe said to me, \u2018Go, because I will send you far away to the Gentiles.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Paul\u2019s Roman Protection<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>They listened to him up to this point. Then they raised their voices, shouting, \u201cWipe this man off the face of the earth! He should not be allowed to live!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As they were yelling and flinging aside their garments and throwing dust into the air, the commander ordered him to be brought into the barracks, directing that he be interrogated with the scourge to discover the reason they were shouting against him like this. As they stretched him out for the lash, Paul said to the centurion standing by, \u201cIs it legal for you to scourge a man who is a Roman citizen and is uncondemned?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the centurion heard this, he went and reported to the commander, saying, \u201cWhat are you going to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The commander came and said to him, \u201cTell me, are you a Roman citizen?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The commander replied, \u201cI bought this citizenship for a large amount of money.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut I was born a citizen,\u201d Paul said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So those who were about to examine him withdrew from him immediately. The commander too was alarmed when he realized Paul was a Roman citizen and he had bound him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Paul before the Sanhedrin<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The next day, since he wanted to find out exactly why Paul was being accused by the Jews, he released him and instructed the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin to convene. He brought Paul down and placed him before them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Closing Thoughts<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Boy, that commander was sweating bullets, wasn\u2019t he?\u00a0 When he found out that Paul was not only a Roman citizen, but a naturally-born Roman citizen, he was mortified at what he almost allowed to happen.\u00a0 I wonder why he just assumed that Paul couldn\u2019t be a Roman citizen?\u00a0 Because he was a Jew? Because he was preaching Jesus?\u00a0 Because he had the crowd in such an uproar?\u00a0 Whatever it was, he did a quick about-face. This story does not end with the commander calling together the Sanhedrin to give an account.\u00a0 It takes some twists and turns tomorrow\u2019s chapter.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>But for now, let\u2019s pray.&nbsp; Lord, You have left us one primary direction \u2013 the Great Commission.&nbsp; You told us to make disciples and that has to start with telling others about who You are.&nbsp; Would you give us the discipline and drive to write down and get familiar with our own stories?&nbsp; Give us clarity and then opportunity to tell someone about You.&nbsp; You say so often in Your Word for us not to be afraid and that You are with us.&nbsp; Cause us to know that You are near and equip us to obey.&nbsp; In Your Name we pray, Amen.<br><br>Thank you for joining me here today.&nbsp; I pray God will grow in you what has been planted and watered here.&nbsp; In this time of unprecedented struggle worldwide, we can look to God for guidance and comfort.&nbsp; Be sensitive to those in your circle of influence who need a word of encouragement and invite them to join us.&nbsp; If you like this show, it would be great if you give it a five-star review.&nbsp; Don&#8217;t forget to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.&nbsp; See you right here tomorrow.&nbsp; Be well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless otherwise noted, all Scripture quotations are taken from the Christian Standard Bible(r), Copyright (c) 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers.
